A patient has a temperature of 38.5 degree C. What is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit?

To convert a temperature from Celsius to Fahrenheit, you can use the following formula:

°F = (°C × 9/5) + 32

Let’s apply this formula to the given temperature:

°F = (38.5 × 9/5) + 32

First, multiply 38.5 by 9/5:

38.5 × 9/5 = 69.3

Next, add 32 to the result:

69.3 + 32 = 101.3

Therefore, a temperature of 38.5°C is equivalent to 101.3°F.

So, the correct answer is:

d) 101.3°F
